CHAPTER 1 GENERAL
1.1 General Description
1.2 Features
1.1 General Description
M3097E image scanners are compact, inexpensive, and ideal input devices for
electronic filing systems, facsimiles, optical character readers (OCR), computer
aided design (CAD) systems, and automatic publishing systems.
The M3097E can scan double>letter or A3 size paper. The M3097E has an
automatic document feeder (ADF) that can accommodate up to 100 pages.

1.2 Features
(1) Fast reading
This scanner can read data about twice as fast as the M3096E+.
For flatbed reading: 1.3 seconds (A4, 200 dpi) (M3096E+: 2.3 seconds)
For ADF reading: 36 pages per minute (A4, 200 dpi) (M3096E+: 18 pages per
minute)
(2) Large>capacity document feeder
Up to 100 pages (A4, 55>kg continuous forms) can be loaded into the document
feeder. (M3096E+: Up to 50 pages)
(3) High>quality image
This scanner uses a compact optical system that provides sharper focus.
Furthermore, the use of new LSI chips produces finer images.
(4) New image processing
The standard version of this scanner has error diffusion function. Dithering or error
diffusion can be applied to those areas judged to be photographs by automatic
separation (image processing ¬option).
(5) Compact
This scanner is small and light. (Its size is almost the same as that of the
M3096E+)

2.3 Optional Circuit Feature
The following option is provided for this scanner:
fImage processing circuit ¬(M3097E0191)
For the details, refer to Subsection 2.3.1.
2.3.1 Image processing circuit ¬(IPC ¬)
This option has the dynamic threshold function and image processing function.
2.3.1.1 Dynamic threshold function
The main purpose of this function is to read handwritten characters.
Handwritten character recognition preprocessing invalues specifying required
values for threshold curve setting, smoothing mode, and filtering mode.
Noise removal reduces noise often found in images after dynamic threshold
processing.
The dynamic threshold circuit is selected when control register #1 bit 4 is set to 1 or
DENSITY is set to AUTO 1 on the operator panel.
Threshold curve setting, smoothing mode, filtering mode, and noise removal are all
dynamic threshold circuit (DTC) functions.
(1) Threshold curve setting
The contrast level of the dynamic threshold circuit can be changed with setting 3
bits (8 levels).
(2) Smoothing mode
The convex portion of the segment is removed and the concave portion is filled up to
smooth the segment.
(3) Filtering mode
(a) Ball>point pen mode
This mode is used when this scanner is used as the input device of OCR system.
When using writing materials caused inter>ommission, e.g. ball>point pen, the
density of the omission portion is increased according to the density of
surrounding portion to get the picture does not have inter>omission.
